Powers (if applicable): X-23's primary mutant ability is an accelerated healing factor that allows her to regenerate damaged or destroyed tissues with far greater speed and efficiency than an ordinary human. Injuries such as gunshot wounds, slashes, and puncture wounds completely heal within a matter of hours. The effects of her accelerated healing powers extend to her body's immune system, rendering her immune to disease and infection. She is also immune to most drugs and toxins, although she can be affected by certain drugs if given sufficient dosage. Due to the effect of X-23's mutant healing factor, her physical senses, strength, stamina, agility, and reflexes are heightened to superhuman levels. X-23 possesses retractable claws sheathed within her forearms. She releases the claws through the tissue of her knuckles, leaving small wounds which are healed by her healing factor. X-23 has only two claws that emerge from her fists. She possesses a single, retractable claw housed within each foot. These claws are actually made of bone and were forcefully extracted by Zander Rice, coated with adamantium, and reinserted into her body. Only her claws were coated with the metal, however, which makes her healing factor that much more potent.
Skills: Born and raised in captivity, X-23 has been trained to become a living weapon. She is highly trained in the use of long range weapons and explosives and is a formidable hand-to-hand combatant, with intensive training in numerous armed and unarmed martial arts techniques. She has also been subjected to conditioning in which a specific "trigger scent" has been used to send her into a berserker rage, killing anything in sight. She is also highly educated and is fluent in French, Spanish, Italian, Latin, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Russian, Ukrainian, and Polish.
Family or Group Affiliation: Weapon X (formerly), Golden Dragons Triad
Brief History ("How I got to NY, the abridged version"): No one knows how X-23 got to New York except for X-23, and she never was the chatty type. What is known is that one night in an alleyway, a member of the Golden Dragons Triad named Wei Yu was pleasantly surprised to meet this incredible young woman when she cut down the men trying to kill him. When he asked her why she saved him, she said 'because they woke me up'. Wei Yu repaid her by giving her a place to live, and a job working for him as his personal assassin. When he tried to pay her after her first assignment from him, she simply shook her head and said 'I don't need it'. Since then, whenever Wei Yu needed someone killed, he sent X-23 to do the job.
